About this Event
Join the women of Overland on an out-of-town adventure ride! Rides open to OMBA members who are women or identify as such.
The Adventure Ride Series takes you places a bit further out with a fun and supportive group. Riders will re-group along the ride so no one is left behind. If enough women join, riders will split into groups based on speed and ability.
Each ride will have a carpool meet up time and place to travel to each ride destination.
This is a weekend camping event for those that would like to mountain bike for the weekend. Those folks only wanting to do one day may join either day. Camping starts on Friday Sept 15th for those who want to camp the entire weekend or for those who just want to camp one day.
There are a couple of campgrounds in the area to camp at. There is the Kelsey Campground and Buffalo Campground. Due to this time of year, camping sites are first come first served.
